With fourteen books, including five New York Times best-sellers to his credit, David Rensin is one of the most successful authors and collaborators working in the business today. Rensin’s latest collaboration is THE MEN ON MY COUCH, written with clinical psychologist and sex therapist, Dr. Brandy Engler. Using seven patients, the book is part diary, part “In Treatment” meets “Sex and the Single Girl.” It tracks Dr. Engler’s unexpected journey through the erotic minds of men – when she had opened an office to counsel women. She also explores her own contemporaneous and fraught relationship with an older man. The result is unique reading experience. Rensin’s earlier collaborations include: * WHERE DID I GO RIGHT, show business legend Bernie Brillstein’s widely-lauded, LA Times best-selling memoir. Also the follow-up, IT’S ALL LIES AND THAT’S THE TRUTH. * DEVIL AT MY HEELS, the LA Times best-selling autobiography of WWII hero Louis Zamperini. The book was published seven years before Laura Hillenbrand wrote her NYT #1 biography of Zamperini, UNBROKEN. * PROMISES I MADE MY MOTHER, with Sam Haskell, the former William Morris Agency Worldwide Head of TV. Currently a philanthropist and chairman of the Miss America Pageant, Haskell paid homage to lessons his mother taught him in this best-selling affectionate memoir. * CONFESSIONS OF A LATE NIGHT TALK SHOW HOST: The Autobiography of Larry Sanders,” with Garry Shandling. An LA Times best-seller. *THE BOB BOOK, a groundbreaking humorous sociology of the ultimate okay guy: men named Bob, with co-author and Chicago’s favorite son Bill Zehme. His New York Times bestsellers – all collaborations – include: * ROCK THIS! with actor/comedian Chris Rock. * DON’T STAND TOO CLOSE TO A NAKED MAN, and the follow-up, I’M NOT REALLY HERE, both with actor/comedian Tim Allen. * NO SHIRT, NO SHOES … NO PROBLEM, with comedian Jeff Foxworthy * YANNI IN WORDS, the autobiography of the internationally acclaimed musician and composer. Rensin’s solo books are: * THE MAILROOM. A Los Angeles Times best-seller, this oral history covers nearly 70 years and reveals what it’s like to start at the bottom dreaming of the top in a talent agency mailroom – in the voices of the trainees themselves. The book is required reading in college level show business courses. The 250 interviewees include David Geffen, Barry Diller, Bernie Brillstein, Ron Meyer, Adriana Alberghetti, Irwin Winkler, Helen Gurley Brown, Norman Brokaw, Judy Hofflund, Bryan Lourd, Kevin Huvane, Tom Strickler, Mike Rosenfeld, Jeremy Zimmer, Jack Rapke, Roland Perkins, Sanford Lieberson, Joe Wizan, Beth Swofford … and many, many others who currently run show business, or have escaped. * ALL FOR A FEW PERFECT WAVES: The Audacious Life and Legend of Rebel Surfer Miki Dora, a long-running Los Angeles Times best-seller. An impeccably researched and reported oral and narrative biography of surfing's most mysterious and seminal figure, this four year project took Rensin on an around-the-world odyssey to track down and interview more than 300 people to capture the life of the late, reclusive surfer king of Malibu in its ‘50s and ‘60s heyday – a man who told everyone: “Don’t talk about me.” Film rights were optioned by Leo DiCaprio’s Appian Way Productions. Rensin is also a long-time contributing editor of Playboy Magazine, for which he’s done more than one hundred interviews, including conversations with Bill Gates, Jerry Seinfeld, Cindy Crawford, Billy Crystal, Lorne Michaels, Martin Scorsese, Ben Stiller, Dennis Miller, Garry Shandling, Bill Maher, William Shatner, Whoopi Goldberg, Chris Rock, Robert Downey, Jr., Sean Penn, Janeane Garofalo, Chris Farley, Will Ferrell, Eddie Murphy, Julia Roberts, Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman, David Spade, Bernie Mac, Shirley Maclaine, Bryant Gumbel, and many more.
